Five Spices House - Boston

All these people ragging on the prices might do themselves a favor and arrive before 4 for the lunch specials. I think it's 13.99 for a wide array of lunch dishes. I got the sezchuan twice cooked pork. I do hear what the other reviewers are saying about the saltiness of the dishes. Mine was absolutely soaked in oil to the point of excess but as most of the reviewers can attest, the flavor is strong.I was feeling like a big spender so I got an iced tea drink, which hit for sure. I think I'll be back next week for a different special for my afternoon job.

Very good Chinese food at a reasonable price. We dropped into Five Spices on a recent Tuesday for lunch and our meal was excellent. Our food arrived quickly and was very tasty. Service was above average. We had the west lake beef soup, signature fried rice, flat beef noodle, pan fried pork bun and salt pepper squid.Food: 5/5

This place is outstanding. Really delicious. The best pork lo mein I 've ever had and I 'm almost 60! My spouse had sesame chicken and she has an expression she uses when something is really good hit the table good . Her sesame chicken was hit the table good. Our server was really friendly, warm, and proud of the food (that 's important for me). I order spicy at Chinese where I live and it 's like, did she hear me? This place had a beautiful level of heat for me I loved it. Highly recommend this place.

The worst service we have ever had, our server was insanely rude, it was like we were annoying her from the second we sat down.We eat out a lot and travel a lot, we usually get on with whomever is serving us so we were confused by this treatment. The food was decent so if you are wanting to try it I recommend take out!!

It is a small place (there is an upstairs also), comfortable, and clean. Nothing fancy. I asked for the General Gaus lunch special, the server stated there was no lunch specials today, it was a Monday so I thought it was odd, but ok. I ordered a full portion, white rice and scallion pancakes.Everything tasted delicious, no complaints at all. Will definitely will go again. They have a salad bar with all the fixings for Hot Pot, oh yeah!
